JT65 en JT9 en FT8 en FT4 zijn digimodes die nog niet bij iedere zendamateur bekend zijn. Met deze modes is het mogelijk om met beperkte antennes en vermogen DX te maken. Zo valt er op een simpele Endfed antenne en 5 Watt vermogen elke morgen wel met Australie te werken bij normale condities.

Wanneer je veel landen op veel banden gewerkt hebt, wordt het echter moeilijker om bij te houden welke DXCC’s een nieuwe band voor je zijn, of wellicht geheel nieuw (voor de mode). Of heb je ze al wel gewerkt, maar zijn ze nog niet bevestigd met papieren QSL of via Logbook of the World. Down under bedacht VK3AMA hetzelfde en ontwikkelde een plug-in die een brug slaat tussen je logbook en de JT65-applicaties. En zo werd JT-alert geboren.

JT-alert is te downloaden op HamApps.com en is gratis te gebruiken. Het werkt samen met WSJT-X en kan overweg met Ham Radio Deluxe, Log4OM en DXLab DXKeeper. Naast het bijhouden van gewerkte en/of bevestigde landen en banden kan de applicatie ook ingesteld worden om een melding te geven bij een nieuwe CQ-zone, US State of Grid.

JTAlert 2.14.0 no longer supports MixW logging or interoperation with JT65-HF or HB9HQX JT65-HF edition.
Users of MixW, JT65-HF or HB9HQX who wish to continue using JTAlert will need to use JTAlert 2.13.10
